Accidental Balance

If your skin feels at home beneath
the sheets,
and your prayers rise up higher
than your doubts.
When your short-comings
turn into quirky old friends,
and compliments no longer
irritate the skin.
Words start working,
your old enemy luck shrugs
and takes a seat.
Your body keeps on going,
creative thoughts go from stirring
to flowing.
And amidst all of this
a perfect balance sneaks in.
